BENEFITS OF THE USE OF PROBIOTICS – (07-09-07)

The benefits of probiotics are derived not only from their living functions, but from their ability to modulate our immune system beginning from the gut. A large chunk of the control of our immune system starts in the gut (as much as 2/3 depending on who you talk to) and this then sends out the signal to the rest of our immune system.

It’s one of the reasons why persons w/ celiac disease (allergy to gluten in grains) have a higher overall mortality rate if they continue to eat gluten. This activates the immune system, leading to an overall increase in systemic inflammation. Systemic inflammation slows beats up our bodies, increasing the risk of chronic diseases.

What Others Are Saying

I had severe and limiting use of my right arm due to a fall while hiking, after a few sessions, I no longer have pain in my shoulder area and can raise my arm high in the air and rotate my shoulder for a full range of motion.

When I came to Dr. Pangburn for Mesa Chiropractic treatment, I was walking like Quasimodo. I had had about every medical test available trying to determine why my hip was so painful. They all came back with the same results – no problem. Dr. Pangburn diagnosed the problem immediately, and within two months I was walking almost straight, with very little pain. I can only be thankful for Dr. Pangburns expertise.
